Although the two have not remarried, this romantic relationship has made Ms. Ji happier.
Moreover, the elders of the Lu family felt that Madam Ji was too domineering and had never liked her before. Now that Madam Ji is no longer their daughter-in-law, they no longer need to give in to her.
Mrs. Ji is truly happy to live such a free life, able to do whatever she wants.
She doesn't have to serve her in-laws, has her daughter by her side, and her ex-husband gives her money. Life couldn't be more wonderful.
This is why Ms. Ji is unwilling to remarry; on the one hand, she doesn't want to see her adopted daughter again, and on the other hand, she doesn't want to see Mr. Lu's other family members again.
…
"It's Dad who's sorry. I've neglected your feelings too much over the years. It was the right thing for your mother to divorce me and take you away."
Don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for what she did to you.
"I just want to know why Dad brought her home in the first place, and why you refused to send her away no matter what Mom said."
"Her father saved my life back then, and he hoped I would treat his daughter well. I owe her father a life, so..."
He never imagined that the seemingly obedient daughter of his savior was secretly bullying his own daughter.
Although he felt guilty towards him and knew he should repay him, he felt that his own problems should not implicate his family and daughter. If he had known that Lu Jinyao would be this kind of person, he would never have brought her back to the Lu family.
"I see. No wonder you refused when your mother asked you to send him away."
“It’s my fault. If I had known she would hurt you, I would never have kept her at home.”
"It's alright, her rumors don't affect me. Dad, let's focus on dealing with the stock price drop now!"
After hanging up the phone, based on her intuition, Wan Ge felt that something was off about this savior, so she made another call to have someone investigate what happened back then.
He has a daughter at home, so it's normal for her to want her father's help. However, Lu Jinyao had been in the hospital for quite a while before returning home, apparently because she was seriously ill.
That's why Wan Ge felt that something was wrong with this whole thing. It just so happened that she had a seriously ill daughter and that her father, who was capable of treating her daughter, had been saved.
…
That evening, Wan Ge saw the news that the Lu family had announced that they would have no further relationship with Lu Jinyao.
Wan Ge knew this was inevitable. The company now belonged to her and her uncles, so for the sake of the company's interests, her father would definitely announce that he would no longer have any relationship with Lu Jinyao.
However, Wan Ge did not expect that, in addition to this, her father also publicly stated that the person who spread the rumors about Lu Jinyao was her daughter. If the matter is found to be true after investigation, he will definitely sue Lu Jinyao himself.
When Wan Ge saw this, his mother also sent him a message. He never expected that his father would sue his adopted daughter for his sake.
Ms. Ji sighed: "Back then, I saw how much your father cared, and I thought he valued her more than you. Now it seems he's still a man. Actually, I've even suspected that she might be his illegitimate daughter."
When Wan Ge heard her mother say that, she told her everything she knew. Ms. Ji also sensed that something was wrong.
“Then I’ll have someone investigate,” Ms. Ji said immediately.
Wan Ge then replied to what her mother had said: "I have already sent people to investigate, but just to be on the safe side, it would be good for Mother to investigate as well. Perhaps she can find out something different."
"Okay, I'll let you know when I have the results."
"Um."
At this moment, Ms. Ji suddenly spoke up again: "By the way, I heard from Assistant Xu that the company may be being deliberately targeted. There may be other forces behind the stock price drop."
"Is it an enemy of the Lu family? I haven't heard of the Lu family having any grudges with anyone before. If it's just business competition, it shouldn't be that serious."
This incident could very well be quelled easily. There's no guarantee that the Lu family will be brought down, and offending them would be a losing proposition.
So if it's just a competitive relationship, they probably wouldn't do this; only people with a grudge would.
"I'm not too sure about that either, but it doesn't seem like they're from around here. I heard they might be from G City. Could it be someone Lu Jinyao got involved with?"
However, given Lu Jinyao's pretentious manner, she generally wouldn't offend people from well-off families.
When Wan Ge heard her mother say that, she replied, "I think I know who it is. Don't worry, I'll handle this."
"Is it someone you know? That doesn't make sense. If it were someone you know, how would they know your identity as the daughter of the Lu family?"
Since the divorce, the daughter has changed her surname and has never appeared in front of outsiders. She rarely even returns to the Lu family home, and very few people know her. So how did they find out about her?
Wan Ge replied, "Yes, it's someone I know, so don't worry."
"Alright, alright, since you can handle it, I won't ask any more questions. Take care of yourself and stay safe. Winter break will be here soon, right? I'll cook you a feast then."
"Okay, I also miss my mom's cooking."
…
After hanging up the phone, Ms. Ji was still worried, so she had someone investigate to see if they could find the person behind the targeting of the Lu family.
She wouldn't care about the fate of the Lu family if it weren't for Wan Ge, but not now. Most of the Lu family's shares are in her daughter's hands, so any loss to the Lu family is a loss to the woman.
